GetContextKeysForPrincipalPolicyRequest

Class

Search:

Container for the parameters to the GetContextKeysForPrincipalPolicy operation.
Gets a list of all of the context keys referenced in all the IAM policies that are
attached to the specified IAM entity. The entity can be an IAM user, group, or role.
If you specify a user, then the request also includes all of the policies attached
to groups that the user is a member of.

You can optionally include a list of one or more additional policies, specified as
strings. If you want to include only a list of policies by string, use GetContextKeysForCustomPolicy
instead.

Note: This API discloses information about the permissions granted to other
users. If you do not want users to see other user's permissions, then consider allowing
them to use GetContextKeysForCustomPolicy instead.

Context keys are variables maintained by AWS and its services that provide details
about the context of an API query request. Context keys can be evaluated by testing
against a value in an IAM policy. Use GetContextKeysForPrincipalPolicy to understand
what key names and values you must supply when you call SimulatePrincipalPolicy.

The ARN of a user, group, or role whose policies contain the context keys that you
want listed. If you specify a user, the list includes context keys that are found
in all policies that are attached to the user. The list also includes all groups that
the user is a member of. If you pick a group or a role, then it includes only those
context keys that are found in policies attached to that entity. Note that all parameters
are shown in unencoded form here for clarity, but must be URL encoded to be included
as a part of a real HTML request.
